swamp_lynxАлександр Дугин в своём новом интервью очень точно назвал современную музыку музыкой для пылесосов и других бытовых приборов. А вот Буланову, Катю Лель, Меладзе, Боярского серьёзными исполнителями, великими тенями, призраками смыслов, призраками культуры, "которые проходят грандиозно, высоко и удивляют нас спектральными парадоксами". И добавил, что сейчас это невозможно, что сейчас либо что-то притянутое за уши, либо методичное ля-ля-ля электронным голосом, которое точно подобранно для работы тех или иных аппаратов, кофе-машин. "Буланова - это откровение рушащегося мира, который уходит, а из этих развалин, из глубин раздаются отдельные, ещё связанные с глубокой метафизикой возгласы: "А я такая внезапная, восходит солнце на западе". Это же эсхатологическое пророчество. И ещё где-то в 90х - начале 2000х были шансы что-то сказать случайно, почти механически записывать. Эта эпоха завершилась, поэтому поп-культуру второй раз создать нельзя. Только ла-ла-ла, и всё."
Kind of Blue - Bitter Blue (1999)
"О группе Kind Of Blue я очень долго не мог найти ни строчки. Тоже самое касается их записей. Bitter Blue, помню, можно было найти только на платных mp3-сайтах (торрентов тогда еще не было). А The Same не было даже там.
Но спасибо всемогущей Википедии. Группе-то уже 17 лет! И дискография ее насчитывает шесть альбомов и 11 синглов! И все, как один, мимо чартов!
Kind Of Blue образовалась в 1995 в Гамбурге и играет по сей день. Названа группа в честь знаменитого альбома великого Майлса Дэвиса Kind of Blue. Сначала вокалисткой в группе была Кэтрин Холст. Именно ее нежный голос исполняет Bitter Blue. Костяк группы и ее мозговой центр - Бернд Климпел.
В 1999 году коллектив попытался пробиться на Евровидение, но отборочный тур не прошел. Однако именно на нем група и исполнила хитовую Bitter Blue. Песня никого не впечатлила, однако каким-то чудесным образом попала в эфир Европы Плюс. Как такое случилось и кому обязаны любители этой неторопливой поп-рок-композиции - загадка. Но, может быть, со временем он откликнется.
И неожиданно песня стала в России одним из главных хитов 2000 года, хотя больше нигде в мире успеха не имела. Даже в родной Германии ее не заметили!"
I am deadbeat and you're the sea
Waves are coming over me
Cars are crashing, no one stops
My life's a rainbow but not on top
I am deadbeat and it's for sure
Love is realtime in need for more
And while I'm walking right on through
The whole world's turning into bitter blue
And now that you know that life goes on
Now that you know nobody's wrong
Take on more step and see: I don't take it back
And now that you know that I'm alive
Now that you know we're all alive
Now that you know... you like bitter blue
I am deadbeat and you take care
I'm still moving in too deep
One for me, now the rest for you
I'm still counting, passing to
And while I'm walking right on through
The whole world's turning into bitter blue
And now that you know that life goes on
Now that you know nobody's wrong
Take on more step and see: I don't take it back
And now that you know that I'm alive
Now that you know we're all alive
Now that you know... you like bitter blue
And while I'm walking right on through
The whole world's turning into bitter blue
And now that you know that life goes on
Now that you know nobody's wrong
Take on more step and see: I don't take it back
And now that you know that I'm alive
Now that you know we're all alive
Now that you know... you like bitter blue
The whole world's turning into bitter blue
The whole world's turning into bitter blue
David Browne. “Ric seemed like he wasn’t of this Earth.” It was an image well known to millions of people. With his pitch-black hair, pale complexion, and razor-thin frame, Ocasek, who died at 75 on September 15th, was one of the most recognizable figures of the Eighties. “I always said he looked like an upside-down exclamation mark,” says Paulina Porizkova, the Czech-born model who was married to Ocasek from 1989 until their separation in 2017.
His music fit his look: sleek yet moody, charming yet detached. As the main songwriter and guitarist and sometime lead singer of the Cars, Ocasek (pronounced “oh-cass-ek”) mainlined the jittery ebullience of Buddy Holly and the dark punk energy of Lou Reed into the Top 40, while spiking his sleek tunes with barbed lyrics: “I needed someone to bleed,” the Cars offered on 1978’s “Just What I Needed.” “If the goal was to have great success making pop music with a sense of irony,” says Cars guitarist Elliot Easton, “then mission accomplished, right?” That was Ocasek’s voice on many of the Cars’ biggest hits—“My Best Friend’s Girl,” “You Might Think,” “Magic,” “Shake It Up,” and “You’re All I’ve Got Tonight,” all of which he also wrote. (Bassist Ben Orr took the lead-vocal chores on milestones like “Just What I Needed,” “Drive,” and “Let’s Go.”)
Yet for all the joy he gave to music fans, Ocasek led a somewhat troubled life that included a difficult childhood, three marriages, and the collapse of the Cars, walking away from that band when he was at the height of his fame. “He was somebody who really wanted to be happy and really tried for happiness,” says Porizkova, “but underneath it all was a lot of pain. . . . His pop element was ‘please like me,’ and his dark lyrics were like the hurt little boy.” To outsiders, Ocasek could appear to be distanced and aloof, which Porizkova admits. “You could be intimated by him, his height and thinness and black-clad persona and sunglasses,” she says. “But if he pushed his sunglasses onto the bridge of his nose, you saw his turquoise eyes, and when he looked at you and smiled, it was like, ‘Oh my God, the sun came out!’”
Born Richard Theodore Otcasek in Baltimore on March 23rd, 1944, Ocasek grew up in the kind of home that can create an inwardly directed artist. “His mom drank a lot and his father was pretty cold to him,” says Porizkova. “His childhood was not a good one.” He would often escape to local boardwalks, sometimes for weeks at a time, and it would be his grandmother, not his parents, who gave him his first guitar when he was about 14. During his teen years, his family moved to Cleveland, where his dad worked as a computer analyst for NASA.
